Dear Linda, Owen & families:
We were so sad to read of your mother’s passing. Her quality of life the last while was not what she would have wanted. She was a wonderful person and everyone who knew her will miss her. Our sympathy is with you at this time.
Sincerely
Ruth & Harvey

The Beierle Family of Airdrie sends our deepest sympathies on Opal’s passing. I fondly remember Opal as our school bus driver. Opal was a warm and caring woman who, after many years had gone by, still recgonized me as one her bus kids. Our thoughts and sympathy are with you.

I am sorry for your loss. Opal worked with my Mother – Marlene at the post office many years ago. Bob was my school bus driver and I visited Opals bus driving route as I went with friends to their home after school. I also visted Opal a few times at the Fanning Centre. She was a lovely lady and though your loss is great – I know Heaven will rejoice with her there.

I regret I will not be able to attend the services as I am getting over pneumonia/ flu

Owen, Linda & families,
I am saddened today to hear of the loss of your mother. Opal was my bus driver all of my school years. She was a wonderful lady and very kind to us. I’m sorry I was away and unable to attend the service. Treasure the wonderful memories you have of her.
